Pretty cool, huh?

When breeding, best to keep track of what you crossed, label and store different crosses seperatly, note which pheno was best and breed those, to encourage those traits on the next seed run. Quality genetics will generally have less of a variation due to back-crossing.

Some seeds may be less developed depending on how long the residual pollen (throughout the growroom) lasted after intended pollination. (weeks?)

Got a strain name you can be proud of picked-out? (bagseed is taken, I think)

i am backing up rusty on the keeping of a detailed breed log one for just urself or us if you want to share :thumbsup:

breeding is funny you must watch for acclimatization and the degrading of potency all sorts of stuff but its fun get a book

now im doing a breed check it out. got alot of my info from marijuana botany robert clark

Very.

Good infor Rusty and Phat. Thanks! Yes I'm keeping logs of everything and the breeding. I'm pretty sure the male and the two good fems came out of the same bag, but the one fem in question is from a different batch....hence the cross. I have no idea what strain they originally claimed to come from, so the only way I can keep track is to name the strains by the people I got them from LOL. Until I come up with my own as Rusty suggested, however...I have no dreams of this being an original strain. I'm sure the product of these two strains is out there somewhere...I by no means have an original product.

But I'll name it for the hell of it(if it's worth naming by the time the potential seeds grow), and yes...I would love to share all the info here with everyone! So when these are done, and if there are seeds...I will keep a detailed grow log for everyone to see what happens with this breeding. I will be keeping a detailed log next time anyway...but newly crossed seeds should be a fun experiment. Look for something in another month and a half or two months from me as far as a grow log goes. That should give these enough time to fully mature and get my room ready for another batch.

Thanks for the input! I like it here.

If you crossed it yourself, you have an original strain...and can name it as you see fit. It's not like you'll be selling them retail and need to worry about copyright infringement.

Here's a couple to get those creative juices flowing...
Grab Bag (bagseed)
Double Bagger (crossed bagseed)
Sergent Freebie
Drill Sergent
First Sergent (your first successful seed run)
Delta Force (force-femmed)
"INCOMING" (creeper weed that hits you like an incoming RPG)
Seperation Anxiety (where the hell did my key's go...?)
Premature Discharge (autoflower traits)
Friendly Fire (mellow Sativa)

Hmm...seems I've gone a tad overboard, but you get the idea, lol. :thumbsup:

LOL...not overboard at all Rusty. I liked those. The issue you brought before about "viable seeds" might be an issue. She's not flowering well at all and the seeds, if indeed that's what they are, are still as small as they were the first day I saw them. While the damage as almost all subsided...I think she's retarded...literally. She has grown only three fingered leaves, the calyx's are deformed, and just generally growing VERY strangely. Obviously sativa dominant, and was obviously very stressed early on...it seems to the point of non recovery. But I'm gonna let her fly, will require a longer flower cycle than the others if anything is going to be produced. She definitely has different requirements than the other two that I am accomodating...so it's up to her.

Other than that, the other two are looking great blooming into very fat plants. Bottom leaves are starting to lighten to a subtle yellow, working it's way up indicating the drop in nitrogen. The colas are about 2" in diameter, and there are smaller nuggets that are filling out nicely turning into little "mini" colas. Nice fat calyx's all the way around, very hairy, and very frosty. Good stuff.

I'll update pics in a few days so we can compare the progression over the past few weeks.

Thanks again!
